PALM BEACH, Fla. (CBS 12) — Florida District 88 Representative Omari Hardy is calling on Palm Beach County to close Mar-a-Lago.

“I am calling on Palm Beach County to fine Mar-a-Lago and to shut it down. The County must be assured that this business will comply with our local mask mandate before it is allowed to reopen," Hardi said in a statement.

Hardy references a video of dozens of maskless partygoers and entertainers ringing in the New Year at President Trump's resort. He says the President shouldn't be given special treatment and that the club needs to adhere to the county's mask mandate.


“I recognize that the President is a powerful person and that his business, Mar-a-Lago, is a daunting target for enforcement, but the law is the law. The County’s mask mandate applies to all businesses in Palm Beach County. The presidency does not confer to the President and his friends a special privilege to endanger the health and welfare of Palm Beach County’s residents," Hardy continued to say.

Props for trying, but he's wasting his time.

3. Perhaps he is

But it's important to make the record so that days, or weeks, or months from now, no one can say that no objections were made. Oh yes, there were.
